How can we improve InDesign?

Would like a feature that would set type flush left to the longest centered line

I often need to set poetry extracts in books so that they are flush left to the longest centered line in the extract—see attached examples. 


The workarounds a cumbersome and/or time consuming. 


It would be great if there was a setting to do this automatically.

    We used to call this "flush centered," and it's a PITA without an explicit setting.

    This would be very convenient. Love to see this happen.

    Yes, this would be great. Useful for headlines in ads too
